Gu Jin administered acupuncture to Old Master Ruan for a month, significantly easing his rheumatism and discomfort.

Old Master Ruan was astounded by the results. He hadn’t anticipated his long-standing issue of cold legs to be resolved so swiftly.

Eager to share his newfound relief, Old Master Ruan invited an old friend over for tea, casually dropping the news.

“What? You cured your cold legs with acupuncture?”

“And in just a month? Which renowned doctor did you consult? I must have them take a look at my ailments too.”

Observing his friends’ incredulous reactions, Old Master Ruan took a sip of tea before revealing, “It wasn’t a renowned doctor. Just my granddaughter with some medical skills. A few sessions of acupuncture did the trick.”

“Your granddaughter, the tea ceremony expert? Gu Yang?”

They were all aficionados of tea. Since retiring, they often convened to enjoy tea and conversation. Old Master Ruan had mentioned his granddaughter’s proficiency in the tea ceremony on numerous occasions.

Old Master Ruan interjected, “Not her, it’s the other one, Gu Jin.”

The old men were further taken aback by this revelation.

Despite knowing that Gu Jin had been out exploring the world for years, they were impressed by her diverse skill set and outstanding abilities. While she hadn’t fallen behind her peers in social circles, they hadn’t realized she had delved into Chinese medicine.

“Your granddaughter is truly remarkable?”

“Indeed? She’s only eighteen, isn’t she?”

Old Master Ruan enjoyed witnessing their astonishment. A faint smile played on his lips as he remarked, “Ever since Xiaojin started administering acupuncture, my leg pain has vanished, especially on rainy days. And that old Chinese doctor from Jin City Hospital shamelessly comes to observe every time.”

Their surprise heightened. “You mean Doctor Yang? The foremost expert in acupuncture in Jin City?”

“Your granddaughter is extraordinary.”

Old Master Ruan deflected the praise modestly, “You flatter her too much. She’s just a dutiful granddaughter. Now, let’s enjoy some tea.”

The room buzzed with amazement and envy, yet amidst it all, Old Master Tang of the Tang family sat serenely, sipping his tea with a knowing smile, appearing the only one unaffected by the excitement.

Undoubtedly, the little divine doctor was exceptional.

Yet, despite his appreciation, Old Master Tang couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy at Old Master Ruan’s smug expression.

The head of the Ruan family seemed extraordinarily fortunate to have stumbled upon such a gifted granddaughter, all without cost.

Why couldn’t he possess a granddaughter who was a prodigious doctor, freshly returned from schooling?

However, Elder Tang found solace in the fact that Old Ruan remained unaware of the Little Miracle Doctor’s true identity.

Yes, he had picked up the term ‘vessel’ from online interactions with the younger generation.

Savoring the tea, Old Master Tang suddenly remarked, “Ah, your Da Hong Pao tastes slightly different today.”

Another tea companion ventured, “Isn’t this Da Hong Pao from the Mother Tree of Mount Wuyi?”

Old Master Ruan nodded approvingly, “Keen observation.”

With confirmation, the eyes of the old men sparkled. They savored the tea attentively, unable to resist offering their opinions.

In jest, the tea companion feigned indignation. “Old Ruan, when did you acquire such fine tea? Why are you only unveiling it now?”

Old Master Ruan chuckled, “I received it not long ago on my birthday.”

Envy rippled through the group.

Elder Tang inquired, “Could it be another gift from your granddaughter?”

The possibility of both the Gu and Ruan families obtaining Da Hong Pao from the Mother Tree of Mount Wuyi led Elder Tang to speculate about the young miracle doctor.

Proudly, Old Master Ruan clarified, “Not this time. It’s from my Chuchu.”

Having basked in enough glory, Old Master Ruan arranged for his friends to attend a viewing of his granddaughter’s latest drama.

Their days passed tranquilly. By late April, Ji Linbai informed Gu Yang that Du Lan had been discharged from the hospital. Gu Yang made a special trip to bid her farewell, presenting her with a bottle of perfume.

The perfume appeared transparent and colorless, as if it were pure essence.

Its scent was delicate yet captivating, with a soothing quality that seemed to clear the mind.

Du Lan was taken aback by the gift. She hadn’t used perfume in years.

However, she couldn’t shake the feeling that this bottle held more than just a typical fragrance. It seemed to possess a subtle, therapeutic effect on her ailment.

Gu Yang explained, “This perfume is called Rebirth. I hope it marks a new beginning for you, allowing you to leave behind the struggles of your past and embrace a fresh start.”

Du Lan’s heart swelled with gratitude. “Thank you.”
